Outline of Final Research Achievements

Infants whose circadian rhythm development is disrupted might not be receiving sufficient light stimulation. Here, we investigated the effects of different light environments on infant sleep structure development. Light stimulation at night reduced the nighttime sleep ratio, thereby decreasing active sleep. The nighttime sleep ratio decreased in accordance with greater light stimulation at intensities greater than 20Lx/min at night. Investigation of factors increasing infant nighttime sleep ratio revealed that the absence of co-sleeping and putting the infant to sleep in an environment with little light stimulation increased the sleep ratio. Removing the influence of light stimulation was found to be of particular importance.
